In this study, we propose a basic method for the construction of a formation flight around an eccentric reference orbit under the influence of gravitational disturbances (J2). The relative motion between two spacecraft in the formation flight is affected by J2. The effects of this perturbing force are analyzed, and the initial conditions of the formation flight for the suppression of these effects are derived on the basis of these analytical results.
